The 1968 Austin Mini 848cc is an icon of British motoring, celebrated for its compact size, nimble handling, and clever engineering. Powered by an 848cc four-cylinder engine, it wasn't built for speed but delivered remarkable fuel efficiency and surprising agility. Its transverse engine layout maximized interior space, making it practical despite its tiny footprint. Beloved by enthusiasts, the 1968 Mini represents charm, simplicity, and innovation, remaining one of the most recognizable and influential small cars ever produced.

Originally registered in May 1966, this most iconic British classic presents well in Almond Green coachwork with contrasting grey trim and green carpets. This Deluxe model has seen very little use in recent years and has been either garaged or in storage. An MoT test certificate was recently issued for this Mini despite being exempt from the test by virtue of its age. Offered to auction with a V5c registration document, an original driver's handbook, some early MoT test certificates,a file containing bills and receipts and a workshop manual.
